Alameddine's new novel unfolds like a secret... creating a tale...humorous and heartbreaking and always real (Los Angeles Times). [W]ith each new approach, [Sarah] sheds another layer of her pretension, revealing another truth about her humanity (San Francisco Weekly). Raised in a hybrid family shaped by divorce and remarriage, and by Beirut in wartime, Sarah finds a fragile peace in self-imposed exile in the United States. Her extraordinary dignity is supported by a best friend, a grown-up son, occasional sensual pleasures, and her determination to tell her own story. Like her narrative, [Sarah's] life is broken and fragmented. [But] the bright, strange, often startling pieces...are moving and memorable (Boston Globe). Reading group guide included.
